What is AdGuard Mail?
AdGuard Mail is an email privacy app for creating aliases and temporary email addresses so you can sign up for websites and receive messages without exposing your primary inbox. It is designed for people who want better control over spam, account sign-ups, and everyday email privacy across Mac and other platforms. The app lets you use disposable inboxes for short-term use and forwarding aliases for ongoing registrations, shopping, newsletters, and account management. Messages sent to temporary addresses can be read in the service, while alias-based messages can be forwarded to your main email account. AdGuard also offers a web version, which makes it useful for users who switch between desktop and mobile devices.

Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
AdGuard Mail is a legitimate privacy tool for managing aliases and temporary email addresses. It handles email content and forwarding, so it should be used with the same care you would give any service connected to your inbox. Access to your messages and account data is central to its purpose, and that is normal for this type of app. Use a strong account password and keep sensitive or financial accounts tied to your primary email if you prefer to avoid relying on an alias service for critical recovery messages.
Recommendation: Keep AdGuard Mail if you use email aliases or temporary addresses to reduce spam and protect your real inbox. If you no longer use the service, you can remove the app without affecting macOS, though you may lose quick access to your temporary inboxes and alias management.
